Shopsmith woodworking bench from the 90's

Post by EricD »

Any else own a Shopsmith woodworking bench? I bought one new from the Detroit area Shopsmith Store back in the early 90's. I am very happy with it but I wondered if I am alone. I debated purchasing the bench or the newly introduced Sawsmith 2000, glad I went with the bench. I like the combination of hand tools and my Shopsmith for the projects I do.

How about some pics of the bench? I saw a few lesser quality images on LumberJocks, but this forum could use some. Wonder who made it? Sjobergs?

How heavy is it?
